The hillsides of the various Dales are mostly gentle inclines, populated by sheep (take care with your dog)and while the weather isn't always sunny, it adds to the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales.
For hotels, country house hotels, bed and breakfast, holiday cottages, self catering accommodation, lodges, caravan and camping sites, you'll find them in yorkshiredalesholidays.com. Most offer bargain breaks, mid week breaks and weekend special offers.
